After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

Xiao Xuanchen had no way to refute it. The Queen Mother glanced at him and continued, "If you continue to indulge Concubine Yi, don't blame me for not showing you any mercy. Even if she is pregnant with the heir, I will never be soft-hearted."

Xiao Xuanchen had three black lines on his forehead and said in a deep voice, "I understand what my mother meant."

"I hope the Emperor really understands." The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows meaningfully and glared at him, with layers of cold frost on her face.

The lines on Xiao Xuanchen's face were very cold and hard, and his expression was a little embarrassed. "If there is nothing else, I will return to the Purple Palace first."

"Go!" said the Queen Mother coldly.

"My son, please retire."

Xiao Xuanchen returned to the Purple Palace. The eunuch in front of the emperor helped him change out of his court robes. The young eunuch walked in and said, "Your Majesty, Jinse, a maid from Yihua Palace, is outside asking to see you. She said that Concubine Yi is not feeling well and wants to see Your Majesty."

The eunuch frowned. Another trick? He immediately looked at His Majesty subconsciously. This time he was in trouble.

Xiao Xuanchen pinched his eyebrows, his face fell, and he said with some annoyance: "If you feel unwell, go and call the imperial physician." Xiao Yuyan's face was full of impatience. His mother was right. He really couldn't indulge her like this anymore.

But when he thought of her pregnancy, he softened his tone and said, "I am busy with government affairs. I will visit her another day."

"Yes!" Seeing that His Majesty was angry, the young eunuch quickly retreated.

Xiao Xuanchen sat on the dragon throne, his brows tightly furrowed, his face very ugly, revealing a cold look.

The eunuch in front of the emperor carefully looked at his face, served him a cup of tea, and then stood by.

Yihua Palace

When Concubine Yi learned that His Majesty did not come, she was a little depressed. Caiwei comforted her, "Don't be sad, Concubine Yi. Maybe His Majesty really has something important to do, so he didn't come to see you."

Concubine Yi was lying on the bed, looking listless and indeed without any energy.

She looked worried and asked, "Is that really the case? Why do I feel like His Majesty is tired of me? Does His Majesty not like me anymore?"

"What are you talking about, Concubine? His Majesty has been visiting you almost every day these days. How could he not like you?"

"But His Majesty didn't come today." Concubine Yi looked aggrieved.

"Don't be sad, Concubine. You haven't had breakfast yet. Have breakfast first!"

"Ah."

At noon that day, Xiao Xuanchen came to Weiyang Palace. Zheng Xiyan didn't have to guess, he went to Shoukang Palace after the morning court session. It must be that the Empress Dowager said something to him.

The two sat opposite each other and had lunch together.

Zheng Xiyan saw that he didn't look very well, so she asked softly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong? I see that you don't look very well."

"It's nothing, just some troubles from the previous dynasty." Xiao Xuanchen said in a deep voice.

"There were many things going on in the previous dynasty, which is bound to make people upset. Your Majesty must take care of your health and don't work too hard." Zheng Xiyan frowned slightly, with a worried look between her eyebrows, and comforted.

"I know I haven't been able to visit you these days. Are you okay?" Xiao Xuanchen felt better when he heard the queen's words. His brows gradually relaxed and his eyes fell on her lower abdomen.

"I'm fine, but I'm afraid the baby in my belly is a naughty one. Once he comes out, Your Majesty and I will be in trouble." Zheng Xiyan exuded a soft glow all over her body, which made people feel very comfortable.

Xiao Xuanchen laughed heartily, "There's nothing wrong with being a little naughty and lively. After all, you are my and your child." Xiao Xuanchen's big hand stroked her lower abdomen, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"Your Majesty said so."

"By the way, I heard that Concubine Yi has been feeling unwell these days. What did the imperial physician say? She is pregnant now, so we have to be careful with her." Zheng Shuyi asked with pretended concern.

Xiao Xuanchen looked up at him, his eyes mixed with some scrutiny, but then he thought, he knew how hard she had been carrying this baby, but she had never gone to Zichen Palace to disturb him, and Yun'er...

Suddenly, Xiao Xuanchen felt deeply guilty.

"Concubine Yi is fine, the Queen doesn't have to worry." Xiao Xuanchen said.

"That's good. I'm pregnant now, so it's inevitable that I'm willing but unable to take care of Concubine Yi." Zheng Xiyan said with a smile.

Hearing this, Xiao Xuanchen held her hand guiltily, "The queen is virtuous, I am lucky to have such a wife!"

Zheng Xiyan smiled faintly and held his hand back, but what she was thinking in her heart was, meeting you is the greatest misfortune in my life.

"So do I!" After saying this, Zheng Xiyan pulled her hand away, took the initiative to serve him a bowl of soup, and said, "Your Majesty, please eat first! Today's pigeon soup looks good, Your Majesty, please try it."

"it is good!"

After lunch, Zheng Xiyan played a game of chess with him, but Xiao Xuanchen's mind was not on the game. After Zheng Xiyan placed a piece, she said, "Your Majesty! It's your turn."

After being reminded by her, Xiao Xuanchen hurriedly placed a piece. Zheng Xiyan raised the corner of her mouth and placed the last piece, "Your Majesty lost. Your Majesty was absent-minded. I won unfairly."

Xiao Xuanchen finally reacted, took a look at the current situation, and said with a smile: "It's true that I lost!" Xiao Xuanchen threw down the black chess piece in his hand.

"I think Your Majesty is tired, so why don't you take a rest here with me?" Zheng Xiyan said, but her words were just a courtesy. She knew that Xiao Xuanchen was going back to the Zichen Palace to summon the ministers.

"No, I still have to go back to the Zichen Palace to review memorials. You must be tired, so take a rest!" After saying that, Xiao Xuanchen stood up and was about to leave.

Zheng Xiyan also stood up, but was stopped by Xiao Xuanchen, "You don't have to see the Queen off."

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty!" Zheng Xiyan was really not polite to him and didn't move her butt at all.

After Xiao Xuanchen left, Zheng Xiyan pinched her brows and whispered, "Finally he left."

"Your Majesty, this morning Concubine Yi sent someone to the Purple Palace to invite His Majesty, but His Majesty did not go this time."

"It's just expected." Zheng Xiyan said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty will not go to Yihua Palace for a few days."

"Your Majesty is right. Concubine Yi relied on her pregnancy to win favor and repeatedly intercepted Your Majesty from other ladies. Now she is about to fall flat on her face." Shuang Ning said with a smile on her face.

"But the queen is smart. The queen went through a lot of hardships during this pregnancy, but she never told His Majesty. She only passed the news to the queen dowager's palace."

"As for the matters concerning Concubine Xian and Concubine Wen, Your Majesty didn't have to take any action. The Empress Dowager took action within a few days." Biluo said with some pride.

"I have already advised His Majesty once. If I do so again, it will inevitably make His Majesty unhappy."

"But this is also thanks to Concubine Yi herself. Now, Your Majesty will inevitably feel uncomfortable with her." Zheng Xiyan curled the corners of her mouth, revealing an intriguing smile.

"That's what the Queen said."

For three consecutive days, Xiao Xuanchen did not go to Yihua Palace.

That night, Xiao Xuanchen summoned Concubine Wen to sleep with him, and Concubine Wen came to the Zichen Palace in a sedan chair.

Xiao Xuanchen was still reading the memorials, and the eunuch in front of the emperor invited him to the bedroom, "Jieyu, please wait a moment. His Majesty is still reviewing the memorials."

"it is good!"

Concubine Wen sat obediently on the bed, waiting for Xiao Xuanchen to come.

After Xiao Xuanchen finished reading the memorial, he walked in. When Concubine Wen saw him coming in, she quickly stood up and saluted, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

"Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xiao Xuanchen sat on the bed, staring at her. Concubine Wen asked timidly, "Why is your majesty looking at me like this?"
